RADIO SOCIETY. APPEAL FOR MEMBERS.
The Hongkong Radio Society, which at present is the sole broad- Casting agency in the Colony. takes an earnest appeal to all in- terested in radio to become mem- bera.
The Society's aim is to provide regular radio programmes, but its work is at present rather restrict- ed by reason of lack of finances. Owners of receiving sets will serve their own interests by joining the Society, because the bigger the membership list the greater will be the possibilities for expansion of the Society's work.
Those desirous, of joining the Society are asked to communicate with Mr. I. G. Swinburne, the Hon. Secretary, c/o Morning Post Building.
Entrance fee, $5; annual sub- scription, $5.

Mr. Smith was appointed com- missioner for Hungary in April, 1924, and for his two years' services was entitled to $100,000 When Count Bethlen, the Premier, yester day handed him a check for this suc, as Mr. Smith was bidding him. farewell, the American magnanim- ously declined to accept it.
Count Bethlon expressed his astonishment and endeavoured to press it upon him saying he had ohrned it and the vouchers had been issued by the Government and their entry could not be altered.
Give it to charity," said Mr. Smith "You poor' need it more than I do. The only compensation I desire is the appreciation and friendship of the Hungarian peo- ple."
Mr. Smith, who is not a wealth man, said he did not feel he could rightly accept money for his ser vices from a people so distressed as the Hungarians. He also dec lined to take any money for his lying expenses in Budapest for the past two years..
Count Bethlen informed Mr.) Smith the Hungarian Government by reason of his generosity would be honored to confer upon him a high decoration, Even to this Mr. Smit demurred, say: If you do this, then I shall never forgive you. Your friendship and gratitude are". more precious to me than any de-. coration!"
So successful, was Mr. Smith's Work in rehabilitating Hungary's finances that he reported to the League of Nations early in the pre- bent month they were in excellent condition. The League acquiesced in his desire to give up the post, The Hungarlun Parliament a week ago hailed Mr. Smith as the savior of Hungary
